This was the whole idea of an SQL implemented version function.
I belive we have both SQL and C functions for versions for 
making that possible.

The rationale was that if one just drops an updated DLL w/out
updating the script he should be warned about that.

Micro version updates were allowed (when I last dealt with that)
to introduce new functions or fixes to existing SQL functions
so you wouldn't get in sync if you didn't run the upgrade.sql
script.
